    “Tonight, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, using two crewless boats, attempted to attack the Novorossiysk naval base,” a source in the ministry told the TASS news agency, referring to the Black Sea installation in southern Russia. “In the course of repelling the attack, crewless boats were visually detected and destroyed by fire from the standard weapons of Russian ships guarding the outer raid of the naval base.”

    LOL
    From what I can tell from the drone footage there was not even any sort of counter fire coming from the ship. None. It’s like they did not even realize that there’s a drone, or maybe they saw and all started to panic instead of doing something productive. They’re not even trying to sound plausible anymore.

        They had to eat their belts after they ran out of rations.

        They’re not even aiming at the ship. In the footage you can see many of the big naval guns are in their default forward facing position.

        They probably have no one on guard, and no one monitoring radar, and so they just didn’t notice it.
